Chapter 6:

After the break, Chu Xiaxing touched up her makeup slightly and returned to the crew for the next round of filming.
"You in a Faraway Heart" is a small-cost science fiction romance drama that tells the story of a love story between an earthly heroine and an alien hero. The director is a greasy and arrogant middle-aged man who brags all day long. The male protagonist is a square-faced, wheat-skinned, 18-line fresh meat. The script is an illogical and messy story. It is a collection of all the bashing. Drama elements.
Of course, Chu Xiaxing also contributed a part to the show's street shooting. After all, she is now an 18-line black and red artist who has been on the social news, and her reputation is also not good. She stays in the crew every day. Anyway, the mess is over. Can this bad configuration be expected to produce rare works?
"Oh, let's take the next one!" The male director, whose surname is Wang, is now sitting leisurely behind the monitor, holding a paper script in one hand and a walkie-talkie in the other. The assistants around him were also carrying a small fan to cool down the director intimately. Director Wang was completely imperial.
In Chu Xiaxing's eyes, Director Wang was an incompetent bastard. The other party estimated that he had never directed a show seriously. Before, he was just a mess in the crew, and he didn't look like a prince wearing a dragon robe.
The photography team set up the machine step by step, and Director Wang turned the script up and down: "Let me see, who should I..."
Chu Xiaxing had read the notice long ago, and she didn't wait for Wang Dao to speak first, so she walked to the camera naturally and accurately found her position. The actor's name is Cao Yangang. He is also making a drama for the first time. He swayed lamely beside Chu Xiaxing, a little awkward facing the camera every time.
Director Wang stared at the screen on the monitor and greeted: "Oh, you go a bit to the left, it's not right now..."
Cao Yangang looked at Chu Xiaxing and then at Director Wang. He pointed at himself blankly, and said, "Is it me?"
Chu Xiaxing: "It's you."
Director Wang: "Of course it is you! Who else can you be if you are not!?"
Cao Yan just realized it suddenly, he hurriedly adjusted his position awkwardly: "Oh oh oh..."
Director Wang frowned and said, "No, right? You should go back. You can't go to the left. You can take a step back."
As soon as Cao Yan saw the director frown, he became even more nervous, and immediately took a step back.
Director Wang looked at the monitor screen. He touched his chin and complained: "What's the matter? Why is it so awkward? Can you still shoot?"
Cao Yangang had never filmed before, and he completely regarded the words of Director Wang as a sacred decree. Now he has not reached the standard for a long time, and suddenly sweated his forehead. Although Director Wang is a who is strong in the outside world, but it is enough to shock young actors who have never filmed.
Cao Yangang said with a guilty conscience: "...Wang Dao, what am I doing wrong?"
Director Wang: "I think about it, you take a step obliquely behind..."
Chu Xiaxing heard about the random scheduling of the director of Hunzi. She really did not expect such a simple shot to take so long. She sighed almost inaudibly, and directly stretched out her hand to grab the corner of Cao Yangang's clothes and let him lean two steps toward her. She looked at Cao Yangang with a blank face, and said lightly: "Look at the camera behind me."
"I'm not talking about walking obliquely behind, why are you still moving there..." Director Wang stared at Cao Yangang, who was moving in the monitor, and was about to get angry, but he saw the current shooting scene clearly, and his voice gradually decreased, surprised. Said, "Hey, this seems to work as well, first try this shot."
Chu Xiaxing: "..." What does it mean to try? Are you trying to make movies?
Listening to Director Wang's stupid words like a pig, Chu Xia Xing once wanted to squeeze off the opponent's head in anger, but she thought that she had promised Han Chuning that she would never choke off casually in the crew, and secretly suppressed her violent temper.
The crew is a place where rules are kept. It is disrespectful for an actor to contradict the director at will, unless the actor is far superior to the director.
When the filming of a scene was finally finished, Chu Xiaxing was very upset, and said a little irritable: "Jingjing, let me soak chrysanthemums tomorrow, I feel like I'm going to get angry."
Assistant Li Jing: "Okay, it's really too hot recently, it's inevitably hot..."
Chu Xiaxing: "No, I'm so angry." She's going to explode after shooting like this, and she feels like playing every day.
Chu Xiaxing drank tea nearby to lower the fire, trying to adjust back to the old Buddhist state. This drama completely shattered all her actor fantasies. She felt that she had chosen to be a director in the past too right, so that there would never be idiots pointing at herself on the crew, and at most dealing with the producers and management.
"You are so amazing, every time you have one pass, so you have the talent of an actor!" Cao Yangang also took a break after filming. He saw Chu Xiaxing not far away and couldn't help but step forward to praise.
Even though Chu Xiaxing decided to mess around in the cast of "You in the Faraway Heart", her acting skills were more than enough. She beat a group of eighteenth-line actors, and even Director Wang couldn't fault her. Cao Yangang is completely inferior to Chu Xiaxing. Every scene has to be retaken several times in pain. In addition, Director Wang often has no accurate ideas, which really tortured the people in the crew.
Chu Xiaxing drank a sip of tea. She glanced at Cao Yangang in front of her and said, "Really? But you are actually not suitable for this kind of play."
Cao Yangang has always been a naive personality. He was not angry when he heard the straightforward comments. On the contrary, he said with a good temper: "I may not have the talent of an actor."
Chu Xiaxing: "No, I mean your appearance is not suitable for acting in idol dramas, so you didn't choose the right way of acting."
Cao Yangang's facial features are not refined enough, he is more inclined to the temperament of the tough guy, and even a little honest. To be honest, his appearance is directly related to the appearance of the crew. If he were to play some tough and down-to-earth roles, he might still be able to get ahead, but it would be outrageous to follow the route of the idol drama cream nanny.
"So you meant that." Cao Yangang scratched his head silly, and asked curiously, "Right, how did you know where I should stand just now? Director Wang didn't have any ideas at the time!"
Director Wang often randomly tried the actor's position on the set, and occasionally suddenly came up with new ideas, wanting to boldly try other shots. He often has one out and one out, and finally discards them all.
Chu Xiaxing just secretly pointed out Cao Yangang's location, which surprised him, and then asked quietly. She felt like a mirror in her heart, finding the fixed point accurately every time, as if she could guess the picture on the monitor, and even the scene of each camera was clear.
Chu Xiaxing burst into flames when she recalled the messy shooting. She raised her eyebrows impatiently, and said coldly, "Because he is a pig, he has no idea."
As a director, Director Wang can't even talk about dramas. I'm afraid this is even worse than a pig. Pork can be sold at a high price at least, so he is a waste of dry food. Some directors will do the scene scripting, and the more experienced ones will have the scenes in their hearts. Only those who have no scores like Director Wang will try on the spot, but everyone's time will not be wasted.
If Chu Xiaxing expressed her dissatisfaction so directly in the past, she would definitely scare the people around her into silence for a second, and they would not dare to touch Chu's troubles at this time.
However, Cao Yangang is a naive member of the natural line. He seems to be born not very sensitive to the atmosphere. Instead of shutting up, he happily reminded: "You are talking like a child. You are still angry with the director. Let's talk privately. It's okay to talk, but you should be polite in front of Director Wang."
Cao Yangang only thought that Chu Xiaxing was just working and didn't know how to converge. He didn't have the ability to observe words and colors like Xia Hong. He was naturally immune to Chu Xiaxing's aura, and he really regarded her as an ordinary girl.
He didn't think that Chu Xiaxing had much lethal power. He mistakenly thought that she was upset and emotional when she was filming, and was afraid that she would offend Director Wang and be wearing small shoes, so he kindly mentioned it.
"..." Chu Xiaxing looked at Cao Yangang in disbelief. She didn't expect that one day she would not be able to hold down even the eighteenth-line actors, and she would be rated as a "child" by the other party.
Chu Xiaxing looked at Cao Yangang's dull and stunned appearance. She was angry and funny and said: "Young man, there is a reason why you won't be popular in the future. You really don't look at people at all."
Xia Hong was from a privileged family. Although he didn't understand Chu Xiaxing's details, he could smell the crisis and knew who could provoke and who could not. Cao Yangang's radar is quite slow. He doesn't look at people at all, and he can't judge the situation. This is very deadly in the film and television industry.
"You should be quite suitable for acting as a stunner in a comedy. Maybe you can still be a professional." Chu Xiaxing joked. She knew that Cao Yangang was not malicious and naturally did not get angry. She just thinks that the other person has a general vision and is a type that is easy to follow the wrong leader.
If an actor followed the wrong person when he first debuted, he would undoubtedly take a lot of detours and suffer a lot. There are too many decent liars in the circle, and they don't have the ability to know people. Sooner or later they will fall.
Cao Yangang touched his head in confusion. He felt that Chu Xiaxing was a little bit arrogant, but thinking that she did have real skills in acting, he attributed it to the other party's talent, and it was inevitable that she would have a loneliness.
In the hot summer, the hot wind blows on the face, and the afternoon on the set becomes more and more difficult. In addition, the shooting in the afternoon is on the location, and the people are almost fainted. The staff were sweating on their foreheads, and the photographer frantically fanned at the neckline to get some coolness.
Chu Xiaxing sat and waited in the scorching sun, and fine sweat dripped from the tip of her nose, causing the little makeup girl to frequently come over to make up. Everyone was a little irritable, staring at Cao Yangang who was shooting.
Cao Yangang was flushed and panting at this time. He had just finished a lap hard and looked at Director Wang in the shade, hoping that the scene would pass. The group performers around him were also sweating, and they were all wheezing and panting.
Director Wang sat under the awning, he looked at the playback with Erlang's legs tilted, and muttered: "No way, let's have one more..."
Cao Yangang humbly asked for advice: "Wang Dao, where can't you?"
Director Wang: "It's hard to say, hard to say, let's keep one more..."
One more thing is to ask Cao Yangang and the group performers to run again. Everyone is uncomfortable walking under the scorching sun, let alone running desperately. Cao Yangang didn't know how to improve. He opened his mouth and wanted to ask for help again, but he was taken to him perfunctorily.
Assistant Li Jing stood beside Chu Xiaxing, secretly muttering: "It's so tossing about filming, it goes back and forth every day..."
Li Jing had never been in the crew before, and she didn't know how to shoot TV dramas, so naturally she couldn't understand Director Wang's way.
Chu Xiaxing: "If you follow the wrong leader, you don't just go back and forth."
The director is the organizer and director of the crew and needs to coordinate and dispatch the work of various departments. If the director is a foolish fool, then the crew is running wildly on the wrong road, and no eight horses can stop it.
Cao Yangang and the group performers ran a lap again, but Director Wang was still dissatisfied with the picture. He thoughtfully said: "I think we can have another one..."
As soon as Director Wang's voice fell, the grievances of the crew almost reached its peak. Although no one dared to complain, they were obviously quite impatient. The staff worked extremely hard in the high temperature, but now they can't finish filming a scene in a long time, so they are naturally depressed.
Cao Yangang was uneasy in the face of the eyes of everyone. Everyone would not blame Director Wang for his capriciousness, but would think that Cao Yangang's acting skills were not good.
After all, Chu Xiaxing can have one film every time, but Cao Yangang has to toss for a long time every time, and the hot weather is even more exciting. In fact, this matter really can't blame Cao Yangang, Chu Xiaxing has his own skills, so he doesn't need guidance from Wang Dao.
Chu Xiaxing originally didn't want to be nosy, but when she saw that Cao Yangang was about to become a public enemy of the crew, she couldn't bear it, so she frowned and said, "That one just doesn't work."
Director Wang suddenly heard Chu Xiaxing's voice, he was shocked, turned his head to see her leaning over to the monitor, and said in amazement: "When did you come here!?"
Chu Xiaxing didn't pay attention to Director Wang. She glanced at the field record sheet in Chang Ji's hand, and asked a few points with her fingers: "What kind of scene is this?"
The field record sheet is used to record the number of episodes, fields, mirrors, and records to indicate the shooting content and time code. The scene notes will record the number that the director is satisfied with, and then forward the scene notes to the editor to guide the post-editing.
Chang Ji was equally surprised when he saw Chu Xiaxing, but he still answered honestly, describing the shots he had just passed.
After listening to Chu Xiaxing, she looked at the dense field records and said lightly: "Enough, no need to shoot again, the later material is too much."
Director Wang had no idea, so naturally he had to shoot all shots, which made the crew's work progress surprisingly slow. In fact, experienced directors have long known which lenses are used for editing. In the early years, the error tolerance rate of film was extremely low. Filming like Director Wang would be beaten to death. Film is money!
When Chu Xiaxing took a few more shots back then, the producers would complain. She naturally couldn't understand Wang Dao's approach. Even with the current technological advancement, digital shooting is not used for repetitive work.
Everyone's eyes brightened when they heard that "No need to shoot anymore." Dao Wang looked at Chu Xiaxing who was suddenly killed, but his face was a bit unsatisfactory. He said with dissatisfaction: "Hey, who said it is OK, I still have no scenes... …"
When Chu Xiaxing heard him talk nonsense, she immediately got a cold face, raised her eyebrows and asked, "What scene is still missing? Do you want a drone to fly around?"
The production cost of "You in the Far Heart" is not high, and the crew does not have any drones available. Chu Xiaxing's words are obviously insincere. Chang Ji suddenly laughed out loud by her amusement, and he hurriedly covered his mouth carefully, restrained his smile, and looked at Wang Dao's expression uneasily, lest he be hated by the other party.
Director Wang said angrily: "I am the director, I have a score in my heart..."
Chu Xiaxing thought to herself, "You have a ghost spectrum." She looked calm and said plausibly: "Okay, then we are reasonable. What scenes are still missing? What scenes are not covered?"
Chu Xiaxing was too lazy to talk to him two days ago, but it doesn't mean that she can be fooled by him. When she was sitting in the director's chair, he was still playing in the mud!
Director Wang's face suddenly turned green and white, and there was no shortage of scenes in this scene. It is estimated that the drone will only go to the sky. Chu Xiaxing's words were not wrong, but he just couldn't tolerate being confronted by the little girl in public, and let the rest of the crew watch jokes.
Just as Cao Yan saw that the situation was not good, he rarely understood the atmosphere and intervened and said: "Director Wang, let's take another shot. She is joking with you..."
Director Wang waited for someone else's steps, he simply walked away, angrily said: "Whatever you shoot again, then shoot again! Transition!"
The long and tormented filming finally came to an end for a while, and the crew members were able to take a breather, but the assistant Li Jing was frightened by Chu Xiaxing's words and deeds.
Li Jing said carefully: "Sister, did you just choke with the director?"
Chu Xiaxing had already walked to the shade to drink water. She didn't fear the glaring of the director from afar, and said calmly: "You don't like him long ago."
Li Jing said in a hurry: "...but I don't dare to choke directly."
Producer Xia Hong is not on the set now, and Director Wang is the top leader of the crew. Offending him is absolutely nothing good.
Cao Yangang was also very scared. He hurried to Chu Xiaxing's side and said in a good voice: "You come with me and apologize to Director Wang. You will be put on shoes like this..."
Cao Yangang knew that Chu Xiaxing was standing up for herself, but at this time she also filled her hatred and became a thorn in Wang Dao's eyes.
Chu Xiaxing sneered: "Is he worthy too?" If it was placed in the past, she would not bother to talk to people like Dao Wang. Any more words would be a fall.
Cao Yangang felt that she was so daring. After hearing this, he was so shocked that he could not close his mouth from ear to ear, and said weakly, "...Will you be a bit too daring like this?"
Chu Xiaxing originally remembered to make an appointment with Han Chuning not to fight, but at this time she heard that she was going to apologize to Dao Wang, and immediately recovered her former violent temper, and said confidently: "Why can't I drag? I've been dragging for a lifetime!"
Cao Yangang: "..." Where did this come out for a lifetime?
Chu Xiaxing has never been a humble and respectful character. If she could really swallow her voice and be polite, then she would never be able to make her mark in the director's circle for the rest of her life.
"Who wastes time in the crew will be wrong. It's fine if you don't let him apologize to me. Do you want me to apologize? Don't even think about it!" Chu Xiaxing simply rejected Cao Yangang. She faced Han Chuning and other children amiably. , But there are some bottom lines in work that cannot be compromised.
Cao Yangang really had no choice. He could only ran back to apologize for Chu Xiaxing, but Director Wang didn't seem to be relieved.
The filming started again, and Chu Xiaxing really filled Director Wang's hatred. She was stopped repeatedly during her performance, coming and going back and forth four or five times. Chu Xiaxing didn't want to delay other people at first, and bit the bullet and pushed forward, but Wang Daogong's idea of ​​revenge was too obvious, and the atmosphere on the set became tense!
Cao Yangang was caught in the middle and restless. He tried to ease the tension between the two men many times, but to no avail.
When Chu Xiaxing saw this, she didn't even have the idea of ​​acting again. She simply collected her emotions from the performance, looked directly at the director Wang in front of the monitor, and said calmly: "Then you tell me how to perform this play?"
Director Wang misunderstood that she knew her mistake and bowed his head. He immediately ridiculed him, "I think of me now. Didn't you know how to do it just now? Why can't you act? I thought you were better than me as a director!"
Chu Xiaxing hasn't been violated face to face for many years. Not only is she not annoyed when she hears this, but she chuckles: "I haven't filmed a trash drama before. Naturally, I don't know how to perform this drama. Of course, I have to ask someone with rich experience.
When everyone heard this, they immediately took a breath, and even Wang Dao was flushed with anger. No one expected her to speak so unceremoniously!
Director Wang was furious. He stood up abruptly and choked: "What a big breath! Do you think that you are Xu Xiancheng and can shoot "Man Ran" at a young age? Or do you really think of yourself as Chu Xia Xing , Don’t you think you shot "Blood Sky"!?"
Xu Xiancheng and Chu Xiaxing are both young and famous directors, and their follow-up works are as stable as ever. When there is little Waterloo, they already have a godhead in China.
Director Wang moved out two famous guides at this time, just mocking Chu Xiaxin for not knowing the heights of the sky, and mistakenly using "core" as "star"!
Chu Xiaxing was taken aback when he heard the words, and then said frankly: "Yes, that's what I think." She didn't shoot "Blood Sky", there was no problem with that.
Director Wang actually dared to respond when he heard the other party, and he compared himself to two master directors. He was immediately stunned by her shamelessness, and for a while he couldn't answer: "..."
Director Wang: You dare to answer these words, and you are still shameless!
